You might use Marked Time in this example: Some agents might each work a number of hours on an issue involving one account. By using marked times, you can designate that those hours spent working on that issue be displayed in schedules and reported on, using the Schedule Marked Time Report and Schedule Marked Time Totals Report that are generated in WFM Web's Reports module.
